GM delays electric truck production at Michigan plant to late 2025 amid slowing US demand

• GM is delaying production of electric Silverado and Sierra trucks at its Orion Assembly plant to late 2025.
• The delay is to better manage capital investment and align production with slowing consumer demand for EVs.
• GM cites higher interest rates making EVs less affordable and inventory buildup as factors reducing demand.
• The Orion plant will continue making the Bolt EV and EUV through 2023 before conversion to truck production.
• The delay is unrelated to UAW negotiations, with Orion workers offered jobs at other facilities until 2025.
